Laughs

Everyone who knows me knows that I love a good laugh. And – being a middle school grade teacher – my humor is a little cheesy. I firmly believe that over time, you become like the students you teach. I LOVE puns and cheap jokes. I have this fabulous white board sign that I keep just outside my classroom door, and I attempt to add a new pun every day to help bring laughter to the hallways. Enjoy!
